I have a gsr and I'm putting on a skunk2 manifold, do I really need a type r bracket and cable or can I use one off a b16a? Wondering if they're the same or if I can use it.. FYI for trolls, I did search it but nobody exactly had the same question as me..

It looks a whole lot better w/the type r bracket and cable. you CAN use an ls one but it looks like ****. and don't run the PCV hose like you see in that pic get a type r one

Ok the tb in that pic is S2 also AFAIK. was just saying the ITR TC and bracket+PCV look better

so just swap the bracket and go? its the new alpha series I see two screw wholes and what do you mean run pcv how?

Wilka

what about the black box underneith with that purge solenoid, connects to stock fpr and two other vaccums that sit under that little holder bracket under stock manifold?

B_Swapped93

yes swap and go i mean run the PCV hose between the runners not around and over like in that pic

So no pulley swap required?

B_Swapped93

if you'r using an aftermarket tb (you are right) then no. and the box is the charcoal canister you can remove it if you want....i would if you're OBD2 tho.

No I'm obd1, so I don't need to route any new vaccums? just relocate the appropriate ones to the manifold? Sorry the write up isn't very specific.

That's roughly what my tb looks like with the two holes, making sure it'll work

B_Swapped93

Skunk2 look alike. It looks exactly like my S2 alpha 70mm TB. it will fit no prob.

Had to do the pulley swap and it still didn't work, gunna try it with a d series one..

Wilka

and by d series one, I mean bracket and cable.

B_Swapped93

was the tb meant to be used with the stock GSR intake manifold ? that's the only reason i could see the pully not working. You're using the type r throttle cable and bracket right ?

Wilka

I'm using one off a b16a, will that work?

Wilka
